Some Great Escapes Escaping into the warm summer sun and readily awaiting vacations, sunburns, waterfights and short midnight esca- pades, summer was enjoyed by those who were excited about finally being able to get away from the long, boring, and drowsy days in the prison-like world of academics. Although a lot of enjoyment is what we had all hoped to gain from the warmer weather, many students spent their free time working in hopes of earning a little extra money for the numerous ac- tivities that summertime had to offer. Aside from working burdens, there were many things in which students be- came involved. As the 1983 school year ended a group of Alta students took off for a week of fun on the sandy beaches in Hawaii. Another aspect of summer was finally having to spend some time with the fam- ily. Slowing down and taking time to visit relatives was often required. Being able to enjoy the warmth of the Utah sun with a can of Tab and the company of a few good friends satisfied the yearnings for vacation for those that were low on funds or just didn’t have the time to travel. During school a large number of A.P. History students took advantage of the Close-Up program offering of going to Washington D.C. “It really was enjoyable; I met so many unique individuals and learned a lot about how the country is run. It definitely came at a time when I needed to escape from school and homework.” commented Dollie Murphrey. The peeling skin, sticky sweat, hard work, putting off of homework, seemed to help some escape for some time out be- tween school years and on weekends.
